This is a web application that takes a user's birthday and calculates the day of the week they were born and then depending on their gender outputs their Akan Name.
Akan names are derived from Ghanian culture. Frequently in Ghana, children are given their first name as a 'day name' which corresponds to the day in the week they were born. Here are Ghanian day names.
Sunday: Kwasi
Monday: Kwadwo
Tuesday: Kwabena
Wednesday: Kwaku
Thursday: Yaw
Friday: Kofi
Saturday: Kwame
Sunday: Akosua
Monday: Adwoa
Tuesday: Abenaa
Wednesday: Akua
Thursday: Yaa
Friday: Afua
Saturday: Ama

Most people do know when their birthdays are, but some might not know what day of the week they were born. Luckily for us, there are ways to calculate the day of the week from a specific date. The following is one of the many methods that exist for that;
Day of the week (d) = ( ( (CC/4) -2CC-1) + ((5YY/4) ) + ((26*(MM+1)/10)) + DD ) mod 7
where;
CC - is the century digits. For example 1989 has CC = 19
YY - is the Year digits (1989 has YY = 89)
MM - is the Month
DD - is the Day of the month
mod - is the modulus function ( % )
-See a small description of what the application does on the landing page.
-Enter your birthday through a prompt
